    If the opponent parry a light attack 3 times in a row - IS HE A HACKER?

    Last days I am facing players which can parry almost all attacks - even lights. If the player parry 3 times in a row I am automatically close network connection because it is impossible to win against. How often does it happen to you that someone parry so many times in one round?

    Never happens to me. But I am not a loser who quits from challanges and blames everything on certain circumstances, so your experience will be obviously different.

    Maybe don't throw only lights? There IS such thing as a heavy, you know...

    it´s not very common even prior to ccu, maybe he is using parrybot or scripts, happen once to me also, entire team in breach surrendered after him, two high rep lawbros stopped playing and only did emote spam, only me tried and my pk was punished to death everytime 90% of lights were parried, zones were parried, he was using a JJ, oddly enough raw Gbs from neutral landed frecuently (no high level player permits that so frecuently from neutral), thats why I investigated him suspecting something shady and yes he is a programmer he knows how to do scripts very well and have accounts in PC and xbox, he is named Cosmicnatrix. All my team reported him also.He I suspect was using third party software from a PC to console.

    It is crazy when you try to fight a guy which can parry all your attacks no matter what you do. I play with Hero which can do a shield bash but you have just one free light attack if connected but every second attack = parry.

    My personal opinion is that light attacks should not be parried at all, only blocked. Light attacks are meta for this game and should have low damage. Heavy attacks should stay where it is ... high damage = risk of parry. Sometimes I can parry a light attack but only when I know the Hero and his opener is predictable and known. Many rounds I died only because I miss my parry multiple times in a row because CCU brings crazy speed attacks which is sometimes unreactable.

    I hate to break it to you but parrying lights is hardly unheard of and if you are throwing combo light attacks after a bash that is extremely predictable and easy to parry, I'm fairly certain you are just playing predictably.

    After the bash is free light if connected and than you have 3 options. If you can predict it three times in a row than I will call you a GM. Otherwise empty talks.

    If you choose the light attack option of your 3 options more often than not, then it could just be that your opponent expected it and just went for the parry and got it. I've done this myself, but most players change it up after getting light parried. Lol

    Yes. I meet the block more often than parry. Switching direction is a must.
